Lyrics

Something in their eyes makes me realize
We're going to find our way out
We're going to find our way out
Not strangers passing by working overtime
Looking down, looking up, looking out

We're running that race
We're keeping pace
Sometimes feeling we won't win
But I see the checkered flag waving
Like a black and white raven
We won't lose sight, we'll get up and try again

The finish line is up ahead
We'll reach it in good time
Loyalty and honesty
Aren't left behind
Our ship hasn't sailed away
It's near shore waiting for that day
The finish line is out there

Never break their stride, working through the night
Healing fast in the grind
Not much else on their minds
Hands no longer touch, eyes fleeting, thoughts are rushed
Faces out of sight, not out of mind

We're running that race
We're keeping pace
Sometimes feeling we won't win
But I see the checkered flag waving
Like a black and white raven
We won't lose sight, we'll get up and try again

The finish line is up ahead
We'll reach it in good time
Loyalty and honesty
Aren't left behind
Our ship hasn't sailed away
It's near shore waiting for that day
The finish line is in sight

This isn't a riddle or a fantasy
It's waiting there, you'll see
Misery and melancholy
Won't catch up to me
The crowd goes on cheering
And we're not veering
From the finish line, we'll get there
